Abstract

The disclosure provides an LDO voltage regulator circuit and a related method. The circuit includes an error amplifier having a localized common-mode feedback circuit, receiving a reference voltage, a feedback voltage, and an input voltage, and generating an amplified error voltage; a pass element having a power transistor, receiving the amplified error voltage, and generating an output voltage; a feedback circuit receiving the output voltage and having a voltage divider which scales down the output voltage; a first compensation element having a first terminal which connects to an output of the input differential transistor pair and a second terminal which receives the output voltage; and a second compensation element having a third terminal which receives the output voltage and connects to the second terminal and a fourth terminal which connects to an input of a first transistor pair of the localized common-mode feedback circuit.
